Biography
Frank Carter was born in Newcastle upon Tyne, the brother of Jack Carter. His brother, the self-described "villain of the family", became a gangster in London with the Fletcher Mob, while Carter worked as a bartender. His brother had relations with Frank's wife, and Frank's daughter, Doreen, was suspected of really being Jack's daughter. Carter's wife later ran off, and he took a mistress, Margaret, who visited him once a week.

In 1971, businessman Cliff Brumby, a rival of the Newcastle Mob boss Cyril Kinnear, decided to manipulate Jack Carter into taking out Kinnear. Kinnear's associate Eric Paice made a porn film in which Albert Swift had sex with Frank's daughter Doreen, with Swift telling Brumby that Doreen was Frank's daughter. Brumby decided to show Frank the film to motivate him to call the police on Kinnear, leading to Paice and two men from the Mob being sent to silence him. These mobsters forced Frank to drink whiskey and then drove off with him, arranging for him to die in a car crash. His death was ruled as accidental by the police, but Jack knew that his brother was not stupid, and he would conduct his own investigation. This investigation led to Kinnear being imprisoned and Paice, Swift, and Brumby being killed, and Jack himself was later killed by a hitman.
